Dorothy M. Kennedy Quotes

According To Wallace, The Expectation That Art Amuses Is A 'poisonous Lesson For A Would-be Artist To Grow Up With,' Since It Places All Of The Power With The Audience, Sometimes Breeding Resentment On The Part Of The Author. 'I Can See It In Myself And In Other Young Writers,' He Told McCaffery: 'this Desperate Desire To Please Coupled With A Kind Of Hostility To The Reader.'

all Strategies He Used To Wrestle Back Some Of The Power Held By Modern Audiences.
